Default Ccw classics in 19s now?

Just went on the site last night and they have a option for 19in wheels in the classics. Anyone know whats the widest lip you could put on with wide body fenders?

That depends. How wide will the wheel be? Do you need clearance for larger brake calipers? What offset will you be running?

CCW has been offering a 19" Classic for a couple of years now but the center do look slightly different from the original 17" and 18" Classics. So, if you are planning to run a staggered set up you may want to be sure you are OK with that look.

As you know mine were for sale, they are now sold. I will buying one piece forged wheels, possibly 19" front and rear. At least 19 in the rear and 18 front. When done I will post some pics.

18×10 front
18/19? ×12.5-13? Rear.
Ccw said i could only go 3.5 in lips in the rear but i really want a 4in lip and 2in up front. The most similar wheel they have with a 4in lip will be the lm20s. But im dead set on the classic look and dead set on a 4inch lip. I have wide body fenders in the rear and and its going to paint in a few months and want to figure out my setup with wheels. Help me achieve my goals

I would love to put c6 z06 brakes on the car in the future and was wondering how big the diffrence is in the 18 vs 19 wheel? I wonder how a 19/19 setup will look?
